Abstract

The importance of cutting-edge technologies in ensuring the success of today's supply chains is crucial, as they not only boost corporate performance but also increase competitive advantages in the pursuit of sustainable development goals (SDGs). The adoption of digitization, however, is still facing a number of barriers and challenges, as has been highlighted in trade journals, scientific literature, and by discussions with domain experts. Using a systematic literature review as well as experts’ opinions, we have identified supply chain digitization barriers in light of SDGs. These barriers have been ranked using the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy (FAHP) process and broken down into four main criteria and twelve sub-criteria. According to the findings of this study, the most important factor in the adoption of SCD is ‘administrative barriers.’ Note that administrative capability contributes to the achievement of SDG 12 (responsible consumption and production) and SDG 17 (partnership for goals). This research would assist supply chain managers in the decision-making process as it provides structural thinking and framework by establishing the relationship between the barriers of SCD and their effect on the SDGs.
